Santa Rosa Birth Injuries
There are few situations as difficult and trying for parents as the moment when they realize their child has been injured during the birthing process or subsequent neonatal care at the hospital. As the realization sets in that your child will face challenges others won’t, you need answers to some basic questions:
What are “birth injuries?”
In general terms, birth injuries are injuries to your baby that happened during labor and delivery.
For example, not performing a Cesarean section when indicated can result in your baby not getting adequate oxygen to the brain, causing brain damage. Often this causes permanent damage and lasting problems. Other common birth injuries involve the doctor pulling too hard on the baby during delivery, causing nerve damage and other problems.
Not all babies born with problems are suffering from birth injuries. For example, problems like heart defects, cleft palates, and other problems are significant problems but are not generally related to medical error during labor or delivery.
Birth injuries are always heartrending, and often are complicated. Get the advice you need by calling us for a free consultation. We promise to listen to you and give you the benefit of our experience. Call or email us for a free consultation.
What can be done for your baby?
Every case is different. Help is always available for a baby born with problems, but the facts of your case will determine what types of help are going to be available to you. If the facts indicate that your baby was the victim of medical malpractice, we can represent you and your baby and work to obtain a fair settlement or verdict for you and your baby.
Even if we cannot represent you, we can give you information about who to contact, and suggest some steps you can take. The first step is to give us a call for a free consultation at (Santa Rosa) 707-284-0050 or (Sacramento) 916-596-2716, or toll free at 866-878-5267.
